2013 All-Ireland Minor Hurling Championship

The 2013 All-Ireland Minor Hurling Championship (also known as the Electric Ireland GAA Hurling All-Ireland Minor Championship for sponsorship reasons) was the 83rd staging of the All-Ireland Minor Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1928. The championship began on 11 April 2013 and ended on 8 September 2013.

Tipperary entered the championship as the defending champions; however, they were beaten by Limerick in the Munster semi-final.

On 8 September 2013 Waterford won the championship following a 1–21 to 0–16 defeat of Galway in the All-Ireland final. This was their 3rd All-Ireland title overall and their first since 1948.

Waterford's Patrick Curran was the championship's top scorer with 3-56.

Miscellaneous

  • The Munster semi-final play-off between Clare and Waterford, originally fixed for 17 April, was postponed by two weeks due to adverse weather conditions.
  • Laois qualified for the Leinster minor hurling final for the first time since 1991.
  • Waterford's Munster semi-final win was their first ever victory over Cork at a Cork venue at minor level.
  • Limerick and Waterford met in the Munster minor hurling final for the first time since 1958.
  • The semi-final between Limerick and Galway would prove to be controversial due to the incorrect disallowing of an early Limerick point by the new Hawk-Eye system. Limerick's attempts to have the results overturned due to the error were unsuccessful.
